Gracey & TRUGracey®
Curettes
Choose what works best for your style and your patients.
Nordent Gracey Patterns
Nordent Gracey curettes feature a more common blade design and are widely known as “Area Specific Curettes.” The straighter blades allow for a mix of various strokes geared towards everyday hygiene.
Nordent TRUGracey® Patterns
Nordent’s exclusive TRUGracey curettes are designed like Dr. Gracey intended them to be. Our blade design conforms to the true intent of Dr. Gracey, with blades that wrap around the tooth anatomy and easily slide into the gingival pocket with a vertical stroke.
